How J is related to N?
Correct Answer :
Sister-in-law
Solution :
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Let us analyze the relationships step-by-step to construct the family tree:
1. Analyze J and K:
J is the wife of K. This means J is female (-), K is male (+), and they are a married couple.
2. Analyze K and O:
K is the son of O. Since no single parent is allowed in the family, O must be married.
3. Analyze N:
N is K's sibling and the aunt of L. Since N is an aunt, N must be female (-). Since N is K's sibling, K and N are siblings under parent O.
4. Analyze P, Q, and L:
Q is married to P. Since Q is the brother-in-law of L, P and L must be siblings (making Q the brother-in-law of L by marrying L's sister). Thus, P and L are siblings, and since they have parents, their parents must be the married couple J and K. Therefore, P (female) and L are the children of K and J.
5. Determine Genders of M and L:
P is the granddaughter of M. Since P is K's daughter, M must be the parent of K (and thus married to O).
The gender of M is the same as P (female), which means M is female (-) and O is male (+).
The gender of L is different from M, which means L is male (+).
6. Determine the relation of J to N:
K and N are siblings. J is married to K (N's brother). Therefore, J is the Sister-in-law of N.
